John L. McConnell said: If you qualify experience as "physical experience", then a level of experience beyond that makes perfect sense.
Andre: The MoQ is not only about 'physical experience'. It identifies at least 5 that I am aware of. JLM: I can think of two self-imposed limitations of the MOQ: 1. Its deliberate avoidance of theistic language constrains it. How can you talk about absolute reality without using the language of Absolute Reality? Andre: The MoQ is, as far as I understand it, non-theistic. Where from the need to use theistic language in a non theistic metaphysics? What is Absolute Reality? JLM: 2. It remains open-ended. To the extent that open-endedness allows it to be extended, expanded, enhanced, and in general, used in many ways to make living, working, and thinking better, that's not a limitation. I thin that's what Dr, Pirsig intended. Andre: Agreed, but I can't see NON open-endedness as an inherent aspect of the MoQ. What makes you think it is NOT open-ended? The only qualification, I suppose, would be that any extension, expansion, enhancement and betterment is that it meets the standards of the MoQ itself. Unless you can think of a better metaphysics than Pirsig's MoQ?
